I was only describing how it works in real life. It's better this way, though, because mostly-translucent hydrogen exhaust would not be very pretty to look at.

Rutabaga22 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I don't know if this has been discussed, but the launch pad and landing pads we see in this video is the exact same as this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I found this weird, the default launch site is supposed to be the Kennedy space center but at the equator. This was very mountainous. Now it could well be an secondary site but copying the features who is relevant for multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minecraft alpha, for example, had almost no features compared to the 1.0 release, and major things were changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebycheek Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Gorgeous! I'm a hardcore player, so I wanted to see how the robot parts and wings performed, i wonder why that part is still a mystery,or its meant to be a big surprise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, we have seen no mention of robotic parts, so there is a possibility that they won’t be in the base game at launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vortygont Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Because of the new launch date of Artemis I, will there be a new or expanded or redesigned version of Artemis I recreation? I think everyone fan awaits for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSTO Crasher Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) Well, Well, Well the great competition to see you would launch first, ksp2 or Artemis 1 has been answered Edited November 16, 2022 by SSTO Crasher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wubslin Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 This was taken 20 minutes ago. The powered flyby is now done but we're still in LOS as I type this. Requesting a recreation screenshot from the devs, please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, those normal maps look pretty detailed and whatever processing they are using to get that reflective lighting looks nice, though it clearly can’t be ray-traced.

JoeSchmuckatelli Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 1 minute ago, Bej Kerman said: "Satellite planets" are moons. What you are referring to is a binary planet In archaic usage: the phrase satellite planet was used for a few centuries after the Galilean and other moons were discovered, before the word "moon" was extended in use from Earth's moon to the satellites of other planets. At the time, all bodies of the Solar system beside the Sun were called "planets", and the phrase satellite or secondary planet was used to distinguish satellites from the primary planets they orbited. In modern usage, the term is used by astronomers who define a planet strictly by its physical characteristics. There are 19 at least satellite planets (planetary-mass moons) in the Solar system, including: the Earth's Moon, the four Galilean moons, Titan and the half dozen medium-sized moons of Saturn, the five medium-sized moons of Uranus, Triton, and Charon. satellite planet - Wiktionary Okay, fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
